In this paper, we study the curvature properties of random complex plane curves. We bound from below the probability that a uniform proportion of the area of a random complex degree $d$ plane curve has a curvature smaller than $-d/8$. Our…

We provide a quantitative lower bound to the Cheeger constant of a set $\Omega$ in both the Euclidean and the Gaussian settings in terms of suitable asymmetry indexes. We provide examples which show that these quantitative estimates are…

We construct two minimal Cheeger sets in the Euclidean plane, i.e. unique minimizers of the ratio "perimeter over area" among their own measurable subsets. The first one gives a counterexample to the so-called weak regularity property of…

We establish mild conditions under which a possibly irregular, sparse graph $G$ has "many" strong orientations. Given a graph $G$ on $n$ vertices, orient each edge in either direction with probability $1/2$ independently. We show that if…

For any integers $n\geq 2$ and $1\leq r\leq n-1$ satisfying $3r\geq 2n-1$, we show that the expected volume fraction of a random degree $d$ complex submanifold of $\C\mathbb{P}^n$ of codimension $r$ where the bisectional holomorphic…

We use the concept of intrinsic metrics to give a new definition for an isoperimetric constant of a graph. We use this novel isoperimetric constant to prove a Cheeger-type estimate for the bottom of the spectrum which is nontrivial even if…

For any integer $n\geq 2$, we prove that for any large enough integer $d$, with large probability the injectivity radius of a random degree $d$ complex hypersurface in $\C P^n$ is larger than $d^{-\frac{1}2(3n+2)}$. Here the hypersurface is…

A coupling method and an analytic one allow us to prove new lower bounds for the spectral gap of reversible diffusions on compact manifolds. Those bounds are based on the a notion of curvature of the diffusion, like the coarse Ricci…

The Cheeger constant of a graph is the smallest possible ratio between the size of a subgraph and the size of its boundary. It is well known that this constant must be at least $\frac{\lambda_1}{2}$, where $\lambda_1$ is the smallest…

We compute the Cheeger constant of spherical shells and tubular neighbourhoods of complete curves in an arbitrary dimensional Euclidean space.

We prove that the results regarding the Isoperimetric inequality and Cheeger constant formulated in terms of the Minkowski content, obtained by the authors in previous papers in the framework of essentially non-branching metric measure…

We study several aspects of the $k$-th Cheeger constant of a complex X, a parameter that quantifies the distance of $X$ from a complex $Y$ with nontrivial $k$-th cohomology over $\mathbb{Z}_2$. Our results include general methods for…

We investigate the bottom of the spectra of infinite quantum graphs, i.e., Laplace operators on metric graphs having infinitely many edges and vertices. We introduce a new definition of the isoperimetric constant for quantum graphs and then…

We study the Cheeger constant and Cheeger set for domains obtained as strip-like neighbourhoods of curves in the plane. If the reference curve is complete and finite (a "curved annulus"), then the strip itself is a Cheeger set and the…

Let M be a bounded domain of a Euclidian space with smooth boundary. We relate the Cheeger constant of M and the conductance of a neighborhood graph defined on a random sample from M. By restricting the minimization defining the latter over…

In this paper, we provide explicit lower bounds with respect to some quantities of interest (parameters of the underlying distribution, dimension, geometrical characteristics of the domain, position of the origin, etc.) on the spectral gap…

We derive a lower bound to the spectral threshold of the Dirichlet Laplacian in tubular neighbourhoods of constant radius about complete surfaces. This lower bound is given by the lowest eigenvalue of a one-dimensional operator depending on…

Let $d \geq 2$. The Cheeger constant of a graph is the minimum surface-to-volume ratio of all subsets of the vertex set with relative volume at most 1/2. There are several ways to define surface and volume here: the simplest method is to…

We estimate explicit lower bounds for the isoperimetric profiles of the Riemannian product of a compact manifold and the Euclidean space with the flat metric, $(M^m\times \mathbb{R}^n,g+g_E)$, $m,n>1$. In particular, we introduce a lower…

We prove a lower bound for the Cheeger constant of a cylinder $\Omega\times (0,L)$, where $\Omega$ is an open and bounded set. As a consequence, we obtain existence of minimizers for the shape functional defined as the ratio between the…
